The choice of turbulence model can have a strong impact on results for many
turbomachinery zones. Palliative corrections to them and also transition modeling can have …

The air density fluctuations in the plumes of fully expanded, unheated free jets were
investigated experimentally using a Rayleigh-scattering-based technique. The point …

The density field of underexpanded supersonic free jets issuing from a choked circular
nozzle was measured using a Rayleigh scattering-based technique. This reliable and …

Sootblowers used to control deposit accumulation on boiler tubes consume substantial
amounts of costly high pressure steam; this cost motivates the study of sootblowers and …

Turbulent flow at a wide range of Mach numbers may occur during design based accidents
(DBA) or severe accidents in nuclear power plants (NPPs), for instinct, incompressible gas …

The method of laser spectroscopy in supersonic gas jets was proposed for high-resolution
and high-efficiency in-gas laser ionization and spectroscopy studies of short-lived nuclei …

Understanding of the structure of complex supersonic flows requires high-resolution,
nonintrusive measurements across the whole field. The measurement requirements are …

The farfield noise generated by supersonic jets is investigated by a computational
aeroacoustics methodology that couples 3-D large-eddy simulation (LES) near field data …

CURRENTLY, nonintrusive temperature-measurement techni-ques available for use in
turbulent-flow studies in which the local pressure is unknown are limited to sampling rates of …

Simultaneous multi-point multi-parameter flow measurement using Interferometric Rayleigh
scattering (IRS) at 100-kHz repetition rate is demonstrated. Using a burst-mode laser and an …
